Sparrows and others of that ilk

[Paula]

Reminded me of a Tommy Cooper joke.

A man took his dog to the vet. The vet looked at him and picked it up. The vet said to the man "I am afraid I will have to put him down" the man crying pleads with him and said "Why are you putting him down I didn't think he was that ill" the vet said "he isn't I am putting him down because he is heavy" boom boom
